In the scope of things, 4 days of playtime isn't that much time. You might be a bit premature in feeling robbed. Boosting a level fast doesn't mean things come your way any quicker. I fully feel like the weapon bounties come with Level and playtime. I have completed all exotic weapon bounties in the game and probably didn't have but maybe one ever given to me within your amount of playtime.
To counteract your theory look at this kids gamer tag. All I did was go to the forums and first one I saw I clicked look at his play time and gear. That's why I find your theory alittle off and why I strongly feel it's not random not at all
Here is the kids gt or bungie name or whatever it is Calamity Shots (7356462)
Literally first kid I clicked on he has a forum saying if it's okay for him to brag that he has the new raid helm.
I see what your saying and thanks for your input. But I kindly disagree I have seen people far lower levels as well as time spent on the game. Get far more bounties and loot than me. And I know this to be true for other people as well. Which is why I don't believe it to be rand and actually certain people have a better chance to get the good stuff based on an odd mechanic by bungie. Quick question did you happen to get and special edition package when you bought the game? Also thank you for your contribution im hoping this thread gets bigger so more people will ATLEAST take notice and formulate there own hypothesis and maybe bungie will set the record straight once and for and actually prove how it's random or set to a level or allotted amount of time.
I only have the regular edition. I was specifically talking about exotic weapon bounties as I said in my post. I wasn't referring to loot in general. But the more time put in does equal more chances at drops, wether you have luck with it or not.
